Personally I don't much care how it looks. In fact with bananas and apples in particular, I find the more "perfect" examples are often the least flavourful.

But I will avoid bruised product. If there are noticeable soft spots, it's staying on the shelf.

Of course you will. You are looking at two items, both costing the same price ($x/kg). One is in fantastic condition and one looks less-than-fantastic.

It's just human nature that you'll take the pristine product. Why on earth would you pay the same amount for an inferior product?

Right but my point was that for me it's not just one that looks less-than-fantastic. It's one that might even look better but actually is inferior. Bruises in fruit & veggies actually affect the flavour/texture of the food.
